Now we have to guess which country's propaganda machine is responsible for this post.
It's Russia. It's always Russia.
I'm not from the USA. Russia is absolutely trying to create problems in the USA though, and the rest of the west:

There's a world of difference between "Russia has propaganda" and "this post and anything like it that criticises the West is Russian propaganda"
Also, Wikipedia isn't a reliable source.
Then you should cite those sources.
Warmed over Judeo- Bolsherik conspiracy
And if you had taken half a second to read what I wrote, rather than copy pasting the standard reddit shitlibs insults, youd realize that you should cite those sources, not expect other people to dig for them.
But we all know you didn't actually check the sources did you? You just trust it because Wikipedia said it.
You're not beating the neo-nazi accusations with this one.
If someone doesn't support the Iraq war they must be a terrorist sympathizer.
What does your comment have to do with my comment?
What are your thoughts on the 1999 War in Dagestan?
What are your thoughts on the sand war of 1962? Motherfucker we're talking about "Russia is influencing the world into hating Iran and China" dumbfuck what the hell does this even mean
Amazing.
No, my comment was about Russia influencing the world into trying to not hate Russia, Iran and China.
Then the guy above me replied something about the Iraq war.
Motherfucker, what the hell did that even mean?
Russia is brainwashing people into not hating countries the U.S. tells you to hate ooooooo
Fucking bootlicker.
I never denied that Russia has propaganda. I do deny your assumption that anyone who isn't slobbering over US boots must automatically be licking Russian boots, that anyone who doesn't do like you do and fall in lockstep behind hating whoever the people in power tell us to hate must be a traitor or spy.
Keep denouncing anyone who's antiwar for their lack of patriotism, you're making Goering proud.
You just posted a quote from Goering in response to me suggesting that a post that decries both parties for "Hostility to Russia, Iran and China" is probably Russian propaganda.
You sir, are the bootlicker.
Yes, because you're claiming that anyone who doesn't fall in line with your Orwellian "five minutes hate" is a traitor. That's the definition of bootlicking.
No, I'm not. I just said that this post was likely Russian propaganda. That's it.
Maybe you should engage in some critical reflection instead of repeating whatever imperialist genocidal powers tell you to think.
Because the post criticized the fact that American citizens get zero say over foreign policy, you assumed it was "likely Russian propaganda."
I do, you should try it yourself sometime, bootlicker.
Look in the mirror, mate
This from the person basically spouting the modem version of the Judeo-Bolshivik conspiracy theory
As if your own country hasn't been filling your head with propaganda from the day you were born 🙄
Oh, but that's different. We're the good guys!
Everything i don't like is "russian".
Blaming problems on an external enemy to distract from internal problems and also to assemble the people behind a "strong man" leader.
No, this stuff is Russian:
I'm not from the USA. Russia is absolutely trying to create problems in the USA though, and the rest of the west:

Why are people on Lemmy so keen on denying this simple fact?
There’s a world of difference between “Russia has propaganda” and “this post and anything like it that criticises the West is Russian propaganda”
Also, Wikipedia isn’t a reliable source.
BlueAnonsense.
Yes, the CBC has been filling me with Canadian propaganda that says shows like Corner Gas are actually quality entertainment.
lol you're the meme!
Yeppers, just as the empire wants you to think
